My entire argument is based on the idea that today more than anytime in history, you have the opportunity to acquire, or lose wealth.
And that's one reason why your argument fails. Socioeconomic mobility has been flat or declining in the US for decades (there are some differences in mobility between regions and socioeconomic groups).
